Guinness Braised Rump Roast Recipes

GUINNESS BRAISED POT ROAST

Steps:

• Heat a large Dutch oven and add a tablespoon of olive oil.
• If you have a big piece of meat, cut it in half or in quarters.
• On high heat, brown each side of the meat and sear it so you get burnt little bits stuck to the bottom of your pan. This will create deep flavor!
• Add the onions all around the meat, and saute for a few minutes, or until the onions begin to soften. Turn the heat to medium if the onions are scorching, but keep stirring them around.
• Once the onions are near translucent, pour both bottles of Guinness over the meat.
• Add the thyme and other spices and stir.
• Cover and cook on low heat, simmering, for about 2 hours. At this point, your meat should shred slightly when poked with a fork. If it doesn't, let it cook for another half hour, and check again.
• Once the meat is at the just shredding point, make a slurry of the cornstarch and a bit of water and poor into the pot and gently stir.
• The sauce should thicken a bit as it continues to cook over the next few minutes.
• Season the gravy with salt and pepper to your liking.
• Serve with mashed potatoes and veggies for true comfort food!

PERFECT RUMP ROAST

Steps:

• Whisk 1/4 cup wine, 3 tablespoons olive oil, kosher salt, Italian seasoning, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and garlic salt together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add rump roast, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours to overnight.
• Remove roast from the refrigerator. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear roast in hot skillet, turning to brown all sides, about 10 minutes.
• Place roast in a slow cooker with vegetable broth, remaining 1/2 cup red wine, onion, parsley, carrots, celery, remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cover and cook on Low heat until roast is fall-apart tender, 9 to 10 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

IRISH ROAST BEEF WITH GUINNESS AU JUS

Steps:

• Place the beef in a roasting pan and pour the beer over the meat. Cover the pan with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator overnight, turning once.
• Preheat an oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Remove the roast from the stout and pat dry. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Brown the roast on all sides. Set the browned roast on plate.
• Crush the rosemary, thyme, steak seasoning, and pepper in a mortar and pestle. Add the minced garlic and stir to make a paste. Spread the paste over the outside of the roast. Place the roast back into the roasting pan with the stout and cover loosely with foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 2 hours. Add the potatoes to the roasting pan and leave off the foil to let the roast get a crispy coating.
• Bake to your desired degree of doneness, or an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (65 degrees C) for medium, about another hour. Remove from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area 20 minutes before slicing.
• Pour the pan juices into a pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer until the juices have reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Strain the juices and serve with the beef and roasted potatoes.

POT ROAST WITH GUINNESS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole and brown the meat on all sides; remove from pan and drain.
• Add the onions and cook for 3-4 minutes or until tender and just starting to brown, stirring constantly.
• Add the celery, carrots, and potatoes and cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes or until they start to get some color.
• Add the flour and cook for 1 more minute; blend in the stock and Guinness, mixing until combined.
• Bring mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.
• Add the bay leaf, thyme, sugar.
• mustard, tomato paste, and season to taste with the salt and pepper.
• Place the brisket on top, and cover tightly; place in the oven and cook for 2 1/2 hours or until meat and vegetables are tender (adjust the seasoning and add a pinch more of sugar if necessary).

GUINNESS PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• In a large, ovenproof pan fitted with a lid, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium-low heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, about 10 minutes.
• Add the carrots, celery, mushrooms and remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are dark in color and the moisture released by them has evaporated, about 15 minutes.
• Season the beef pieces all over with salt and pepper. Add the beef, flour and rosemary to the pan and cook over high heat, stirring often, for about 5 minutes.
• Add enough Guinness to just cover the beef. Cover the pan and put it in the oven for 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven and stir. If using trotter gear, stir it in now. Return to the oven and cook for 1 hour more. If it remains thin, set the pan over medium-low heat, remove the lid and reduce the liquid. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If using Cheddar, fold in about half.
• While the stew is cooking, prepare the pastry: sift together the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Using a pastry cutter or your hands, quickly work the butter into the dough until it is the texture of coarse meal. Add ice water, a splash at a time, until a firm dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Place the dough between two sheets of plastic wrap and, using a rolling pin, roll to the thickness of a computer mouse pad. Pour the stew into an 8-inch-square, 2-inch-high Pyrex dish or a deep 9-inch pie pan. If using Cheddar, scatter the remaining cheese across the top. Place the dough on top of the pie and pinch it closed around the edges using the tines of a fork, then slash the center lightly with a knife. Brush with the egg yolk, place on a baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes, or until the pastry is puffy and golden.
